[rt-users] Apache segfaulting on RT::Mason

[john_oshea at wordbank.com]

I'm in the process of moving an existing RT2 installation from a 
machine on the verge of hardware death to something a bit more robust 
and am hitting the above-mentioned problem. I've managed to narrow 
the problem down to Apache segfaulting when it adds RT::Mason into 
the handler chain, but I'm then out of my depth in terms of where to 
go from there.

I've copied over the config.pm file from the original machine, 
pg_dump'ed the original rt2 database and restored it via psql < 
{name_of_dump_file}, and checked that the file/folder permissions are 
the same on both machines.

Any pointers as to where to go from here would be most appreciated.

Thanks

John



Other details:

All the following are built from freshly-CVSup'ed ports on a FreeBSD 
4.8 PIII box:

apache-1.3.29_1
perl-5.8.2_2
rt2-2.0.15_1
postgresql-7.2.4_2
mod_perl-1.28
mod_php4-4.3.4_2,1
p5-HTML-Mason-1.23

Original (on the verge of death machine) is running FreeBSD 4.9. 
PostgreSQL versions are identical.
